A Fool In Love

For years I waited for you to come around
To feel the same love that I had found
The very first time I looked into your eyes.

For years you could not see how it could be
Or how much love there was between you and me
But I never gave up on you.

Every time I would see you my heart skipped a beat
You gave me hope each time you wanted to meet
Even though I knew why you wanted to see me.

Every time our lips would touch
I knew I would miss you so much
When we parted our ways.

Would I ever see you again?
Would I ever be in your arms again?
Would I ever look into your eyes again?

Never knowing I cried myself to sleep many times
All I wanted was for you to be mine
What we had going on wasn't good enough anymore.

Yes I was and still am very much a fool in love
Each night I went to bed I would think of
How it would feel to be your girl.

Now that I finally am I still have to ask
Why I am still hiding behind my mask
Especially when I question things.

I love you more than you will ever know
Because all those years apart I couldn't let you go
Because you stole my heart the day I met you!
